The ever-expanding availability of spatial data continues to revolutionise research. This book is your go-to guide to getting the most out of handling, mapping and analysing location-based data.

Without assuming prior knowledge of GIS, geocomputation or R, this book helps you understand spatial analysis and mapping and develop your programming skills, from learning about scripting and writing functions to point pattern analysis and spatial attribute analysis.

The book:

Illustrates approaches to analysis on a range of datasets that are new to this edition. Enables you to put your skills into practice with embedded exercises and over 30 self-test questions. Showcases the possibilities of using spatial analysis to explore spatial inequalities.
